A Swift Response to Newly Discovered, Nearby Transients

Universe, 2023
The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory has proven to be an extraordinary supernova (SN) observatory. The clearest application of Swift’s unique strengths is obtaining very early UV and X-ray data of young SNe, which enables robust constraints on their ...

Ultraviolet Astronomy [PDF]

Highlights of Astronomy, 1968
Ultraviolet astronomy is in a phase of very rapid development and any review of the new techniques involved is necessarily conditioned by the fact that most of the work is in a preparatory stage. This paper, therefore, will not be restricted to a discussion of those techniques which have undergone the ultimate test of their effectiveness, i.e., an ...

Nonequilibrium Ionization Modeling of Petschek-type Shocks in Reconnecting Current Sheets in Solar Eruptions

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Nonequilibrium ionization (NEI) is essentially required for astrophysical plasma diagnostics once the plasma status departs from the assumption of ionization equilibrium.

Interpreting the Si ii and C ii Line Spectra from the COS Legacy Archive Spectroscopic SurveY Using a Virtual Galaxy from a High-resolution Radiation-hydrodynamic Simulation

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Observations of low-ionization state metal lines provide crucial insights into the interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies, yet, disentangling the physical processes responsible for the emerging line profiles is difficult.
